The addition of the trademark GRAMOXONE® to Crystal Crop Protection’s portfolio will play a vital role in extending its reach to more farmers across India and is expected to contribute significantly

Crystal Crop Protection Limited, one of the fast-growing R&D-based crop protection manufacturing and marketing companies in India, has announced the acquisition of the trademark GRAMOXONE® for use in the Indian market, from Syngenta, a global leader in agriculture.

With increasing herbicide adoption of an impressive 15-20 per cent in the last decade, farmers have been open to using innovative methods for increasing crop yield. A paradigm shift from manual weeding to the use of herbicides is expected to enhance agricultural production in India significantly.

Ankur Aggarwal, Managing Director of Crystal Crop Protection Limited, stated, “In a pursuit to improve protect yield and increase profits for farmers, herbicides have become the fastest-growing segment in crop protection. The acquisition of the trademark GRAMOXONE® represents a significant step forward in our pursuit of expanding our footprint within the herbicide category. GRAMOXONE® is a widely recognised trademark in the broad-spectrum herbicide category.”

The addition of the trademark GRAMOXONE® to Crystal Crop Protection’s portfolio will play a vital role in extending its reach to more farmers across India and is expected to contribute significantly. Crystal Crop Protection’s non-selective herbicide portfolio already features industry-leading brands.
